Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

2.1K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

3.3K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

823
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

1.0K
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Planning Nursing Care I

6.4K
The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

    Area of Science:

    • Palliative Care and Symptom Management
    • Medical Concept Analysis
    • Patient-Centered Outcomes Research

    Background:

    • The term 'palliation' is frequently used ambiguously in medical literature.
    • It is often conflated with related but distinct concepts like palliative care, symptom management, and hospice.
    • Lack of definitional clarity hinders precise application and research in patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To conduct a concept analysis of 'palliation' using Wilson's method.
    • To define palliation, identify its core attributes, and suggest future research directions.
    • To establish a clear, patient-centered definition to guide clinical practice and outcome measurement.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Wilson's methodology for concept analysis.
    • Systematically reviewed literature to identify and synthesize information on palliation.
    • Developed a refined definition based on the analysis of core attributes.

    Main Results:

    • Proposed a new definition for palliation: 'patient goal-directed symptom relief from a non-curative intervention, administered via human presence'.
    • Identified key attributes that distinguish palliation from related terms.
    • Highlighted the importance of human presence in the administration of palliation.

    Conclusions:

    • A precise definition of palliation is essential for advancing patient care.
    • The clarified definition and attributes will support the development of valid patient-centered outcome measures.
    • Further research is needed to explore the implications of this definition in clinical settings.
